Chapter 313 Dowry



"Great idea! Let's have him marry into the family!" Ning Chengzhu slapped Ning Nanxiao hard. "Good boy, let's do it this way!"

Eunuch Cai, standing to the side, laughed: "Young Master Ning and Miss Bai are a match made in heaven. Some people should know their place. It is said that it is better to tear down ten temples than to break up one marriage. If they go too far, even the heavens will not stand it. Don't blame me for not reminding you."

"What people do is seen by Heaven; retribution may not come immediately, it's just that the time hasn't arrived yet!"

Ni Miaomiao suddenly turned to look at Eunuch Cai: "You, you're talking nonsense!"

"Brother Nanxiao, how could you marry into my family? How could you marry into my family! You're so outstanding, you..."

“Miss Ni, please have some self-respect.” Ning Nanxiao took two steps back, his eyes already showing disgust. “If Miss Ni continues to pester me, I don’t mind making sure this world is without Miss Ni.”

Although the tone was calm and even, everyone could hear the threat and warning in it.

Ni Yihong's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly scolded, "Alright, Miaomiao, it's getting late, go find your mother!"

"Brother Chen, let me see you out."

Chen Luo cupped his hands in greeting: "No need, Brother Ni, please continue with your work."

After exchanging a few more polite words, he left.

Ni Miaomiao was led to a room. Madam Ni had already heard about what had just happened and sighed, saying, "Miaomiao, there are so many young men in the martial world, why do you insist on having him?"

"Mother, among so many young men, is there anyone who can compare to him?" Ni Miaomiao pouted, her eyes full of resentment. "What exactly is better about Bai Tuantuan than me? Is she as good as me in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting? She's just a little prettier than me, so what!"

Seeing Ni Miaomiao's angry expression, Madam Ni thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll first find out who that white ball is. If she's just an ordinary person, I'll help you think of a way, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Ni Miaomiao's eyes lit up, and she rushed towards Madam Ni: "Mother is the best! Mother, you must help me!"

Madam Ni found Ni Yihong. After listening to her daughter-in-law's words, Ni Yihong frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "That Bai Tuantuan is Brother Chen's granddaughter. Brother Chen is just an ordinary person, and his son-in-law should also be just an ordinary person. So Bai Tuantuan doesn't have any background."

“Father, you must confirm this.” Madam Ni thought for a moment and said slowly, “If he is just an ordinary person, then Ning Nanxiao should also be just an ordinary person.”

"If that's really the case, then why did Ning Nanxiao reject our Miaomiao?"

"Isn't our Miaomiao's background more powerful than Bai Tuantuan's?"

Hearing this, Ni Yihong remained silent for a while, then said calmly, "I will find out the truth, but you still need to talk to Miaomiao properly."

“Father,” Madam Ni said disdainfully, “If they are just ordinary people, why would we be afraid of them? Besides, you know Miaomiao’s personality. She will definitely get what she likes, but it will only be a three-day interest. Once she gets tired of it, we can just kick Ning Nanxiao out.”

"You and Miaomiao like it, you must help this child."

Ni Yihong sighed: "I understand."

After Madam Ni left, Ni Yihong went to investigate, but by evening, he still hadn't been able to find out who these people were.

Upon hearing this, Madam Ni felt relieved: "That means they are nothing special. Father, don't worry about this matter. I will take care of it for Miao Miao."

"My mother is so good!"

Ni Miaomiao was overjoyed.

Ni Yihong's son, Ni Duohan, frowned slightly: "Ning Nanxiao and Bai Tuantuan are in love, what are you trying to do?"

"father!"

Ni Miaomiao glared at Ni Duohan, her little face full of anger: "I just like Brother Nanxiao, I don't care! I just like him! I'm going to marry him!"

"Nonsense!"

Ni Duohan slammed his hand on the table: "They've already said they'd rather marry into the family than accept Bai Tuantuan!"

"I don't care! I'm going to marry him! I'll take him even if I have to!"

Ni Miaomiao shouted it out loud.

Madam Ni, feeling distressed, quickly pulled Ni Miaomiao into her arms: "Alright, alright, sir, just say less. Since Miaomiao likes it, then give it to her. It's her good fortune to be chosen by our Miaomiao!"

"You! You're too soft-hearted! Those people are clearly not to be trifled with; their air of nobility is something ordinary people can't possess. Be careful you don't kick a hornet's nest!"

"Husband, don't let them embolden us and diminish our own morale! If they were truly capable, wouldn't we have been able to find out?"

Madam Ni disagreed, saying, "If my husband is afraid, then he should not get involved in this matter."

"you!"

"Alright!" Ni Yihong frowned, his eyes filled with disappointment as he looked at Ni Duohan. "You're not as decisive as a woman!"

“Father!” Ni Duohan wanted to say something, but Ni Yihong stopped him, “Don’t worry about this matter.”

Ni Duohan sighed heavily and said slowly, "Very well, if anything happens in the future, don't blame me for not warning you!"

With that, he flicked his long sleeves and left.

Ni Miaomiao pouted: "Grandpa, look at Daddy, he doesn't care about me at all!"

"Alright, alright." Ni Yihong looked at Ni Miaomiao helplessly. "With Grandpa and your mother here, what are you afraid of?"

"But tomorrow is the Mount Hua Sword Tournament, so we can't afford any mishaps."

"Let's discuss this properly after the Mount Hua Sword Tournament."

Ni Miaomiao was naturally unwilling to drag things out any longer. Just as she was about to say something, Madam Ni stopped her and said with a smile, "Alright, Miaomiao, your grandfather has already promised you, and he will keep his word. Now is a crucial moment, and we can't afford to cause any trouble."

"Besides, it's a good opportunity to let Ning Nanxiao know your status in the martial arts world tomorrow!"

"By the way, Miaomiao, is the talent show I asked you to prepare ready?"

Ni Miaomiao proudly raised her chin: "Mom, don't worry, I'm all prepared. I'm sure I'll shine at the Mount Hua Sword Tournament!"

Mrs. Ni laughed.

Meanwhile, Bai Tuantuan and the others entered their new home. Bai Tuantuan had just delivered the food to the Emperor when she saw Eunuch Cai and Ning Nanxiao whispering to each other, while Ning Chengzhu, who was eating snacks, nodded as if he agreed with what the two said.

As for Chen Luo and Bai Han, they were playing chess on the side.

An iron pot and a soup ladle emerged from the space and slowly said, "Quite a few people have come; this is going to be interesting."

"Tuantuan, after we leave Mount Hua this time, you should take the Emperor to the 21st century so that he can experience gender equality."

"I understand." Bai Tuantuan smiled and walked over.

"Princess, come quickly!" Eunuch Cai said with a smile when he saw Bai Tuantuan. "Look, what's missing?"

Bai Tuantuan took the paper from Eunuch Cai, unfolded it, and was stunned: "This... isn't it a bit too early to discuss betrothal gifts now?"
